LOG SHEET INFORMATION Please remember you and your parent/guardian are to sign off on your workouts on the bi-weekly log sheets. Detailed workouts must be written on the log sheet. Every two weeks you are to be timed in the mile run, 60-second sit up test, and record how many pull-ups (regular or modified) you can do. This is an integral part of your commitment to this class. Handwritten or sloppy log sheets will not be accepted. These sheets are to be turned in every other Thursday in the West Gym by you personally before 8:05am. 1 st Log sheet is due Thursday, September 6 th before school. Turn in times will be from 7-8:05am. Please remember this is a class and these are mandatory turn-in times. No Excuses! Partner up or be in groups to remind each other to turn in your log sheets. Your responsibility is to turn in log sheets every two weeks throughout each semester, and pass your pre-test and State Fitness Tests to stay in the class and receive a passing grade. You must personally turn in your own log sheet on the dates listed on the schedule. There will be NO EXCUSES to missing these turn-in times and dates. This means any meetings, makeup tests, will NOT be valid excuses. Please plan ahead! It is your responsibility to self-report a missed log sheet, complete the form, AND send your instructor an email acknowledging your mistake. Warning Notice must be turned in immediately if you missed a turn-in date! The first time you miss the deadline to submit your log sheet on time, you will then have to do a make-up on the next Thursday before our next meeting. Make-up times are between 7-7:30am. Anyone entering the Fitness room after 7:30 will not be allowed to do their make-up! The second time you forget to turn in your log sheet for the semester or turn it in late, you will be out of the class. You know you goofed up. Please do not come asking for a break or reprieve. We expect you to see your counselor immediately, and you will start Zero Period P.E. the following Monday morning. It is your responsibility to tell your parents the same day you are dropped from Directive Studies. If you do not wish to enroll in Zero Period and you are a junior, you may opt to take summer school P.E. Seniors must enroll in regular (daily) Zero Period. It is your responsibility to see your counselor and to be in class on the following Monday morning. Again, No Excuses! Each day you miss past that Monday, will be marked as class cuts. If you are sick on the turn-in day, please have your parents sign the back of your log sheet indicating that you were sick and this will not count as a missed turn-in and send your teacher an email on that day. We expect you to turn in your log sheet (In person, not to the teacher s box) the day you return from your absence. We will then check with attendance to make sure you were absent all day and were cleared. You will be marked absent if you do not report to a requested meeting time. If you are going on a field trip on a turn-in Thursday, please see us that morning before you leave, or you may put your log sheet in our box the day before, and write your instructor a note and email that you will be absent tomorrow due to a field trip. If your log sheet is submitted before the field trip, this will not count as a missed or late log sheet. We expect you are responsible enough to communicate with us and submit your log sheet prior to your field trip. Any log sheet turned in after your field trip (the next day) will be considered a missed turn-in time. If you happen to be on a complete medical for that 2-week period, we expect you to type a two-page report on any wellness/sport activity that you would like research. Please staple this to your log sheet, explaining you are on a medical. You must meet all the deadlines and submit this work on time. Any student who submits a substandard log sheet will be required to do a make-up before the next log sheet turn-in date. Please maintain high standards in all Directive Studies endeavors. Check for accuracy, parent signature, and correct dates!
